Reap the benefits at Fallowfields, Cannock
Just three family properties remain at Fallowfields by Taylor Wimpey West Midlands – a premier development of 85 new homes in picturesque Huntington village on the edge of Cannock Chase.
This picturesque development has long been making a name for itself because all of the properties have a coveted garage - rare in today's space conscious market. And apart from its proximity to a designated Area of Outstanding Beauty in the Chase, the development also offers tree-lined avenues, lots of established, mature planting, plus natural areas within its boundaries - because it falls in restricted green belt!
Plot 61 is in the popular four bedroom, three storey ‘Malvern’ style and is the current view home, which is already built, fully carpeted and with a turfed garden for one lucky buyer. Consequently, you can view this inspiring property and know exactly what you are buying.
Sales & marketing director, Jan Titley, explains: “A fully completed home like this gives you the chance to properly inspect the product and ensure that it fits your requirements. Our sales executive can give you a private and personal tour and you can check that the rooms, views and dimensions, plus the overall atmosphere and ambience are what you require. In fact, because it’s already built, you can visit as many times as you want, compare and contrast with other properties, try before you buy if you like – so you know exactly what you’re getting for your money.”
This highly practical family home is now available for just £169,995 on the open market, but if you qualify for the government-backed ‘HomeBuy Direct’ scheme (aimed at helping purchasers with a household income of less than £60,000 afford the home they want) it can be yours for just £118,997 – with only a deposit of £5,950 to pay. An interest free equity loan is available for up to 30 percent of the value of the property, co-funded by the Homes and Communities Agency and Taylor Wimpey – and this handy but soon-to-finish scheme is designed to overcome the hurdles of high mortgage costs and larger deposits, which are preventing some people from buying.
No interest is charged on the equity loan for the first five years and the purchaser has to contribute the remaining equity through an agreed mortgage. Buyers are also able to pay off the equity loan in instalments at any stage after the first 12 months or sell their HomeBuy property on the open market if they wish – with the equity loan being repaid by way of a share of the sales proceeds.
The remaining two five-bedroom, three storey properties are in the exclusively spacious ‘Sutton’ design and feature three bathrooms, a kitchen/dining room, living room and extra study. Both are priced just £249,995 and have a garage. Plot 63 however has a double garage and is very nearly complete - fully painted and carpeted and already furnished and with fridge/freezer, washing machine, ceramic floors and dishwasher.
Sales executive Linda Wainwright is highly experienced and says that Fallowfields with its distinctive horseshoe-shaped streetscene is easily the most picturesque development she has worked on, while site manager Mick Wale has recently won a National House Building Council ‘Quality’ award for the fourth year running. Linda adds: “Huntington was already big on community spirit, but the development itself has really matured now and has everything you could need right on the doorstep. Littleton Green Community School next door has just celebrated its open day and the new doctor’s surgery on the development itself is due to open very shortly, plus there’s a Post Office and a really nice pub opposite and lots of established facilities and amenities very close too.”
‘Part Exchange’ is also available at Fallowfields and this scheme takes all the uncertainty out of moving home and literally enables you to trade in your old home for a brand new one. It guarantees a buyer, a fair price and no worries over a moving date for the existing property, or being let down by banks, solicitors and even buyers pulling out. Subject to survey, Taylor Wimpey settle on a price for your old house and stick to it, along with a realistic completion date, so there’s no unpredictable chain to hold things up.
There are no agent’s fees to pay either as they’re effectively buying your home from you – leaving you to move in to your new home as and when you’re ready – plus Taylor Wimpey can even accommodate ‘chainbreaker’ deals whereby they step in and purchase another property further down the chain if things fall through. This stops the purchase getting held up, or even grinding to a halt and provides extra peace of mind and takes all the stress and strain away.
The Sales Centre off Stafford Road is open Thursday – Monday from 10am – 5pm.
